The production process in Baixi Can Industry is very eco-friendly; it emphasizes recyclability, energy efficiency, and waste reduction. Sustainability is driving the global growth of the metal packaging market, which will reach $68 billion by 2027, marking a 6.3% annual growth rate.
Among all recyclable packaging, metal cans have the highest recycling rates in the world, well over 75%. In Europe, the current recycling rate of aluminum cans stands at 76%, while the recovery rate of steel cans reaches 90%. According to research conducted by the International Aluminium Institute in 2023, a single tonne of aluminum being recycled saves up to 14,000 kwh of electric power, preventing 9 tonnes of carbon emissions.
Baixi Can Industry focuses on low-carbon production methods. In its facilities, energy-saving high-speed stamping machines are installed, which can produce 1,200 cans per minute, with a reduction in material waste by 15%. Advanced aluminum alloy technology lowered raw material use by 8%, thus decreasing the overall carbon footprint of production.
Sustainability also refers to water conservation. Conventional metal can manufacturing uses 10 liters of water for every kilogram of aluminum, while Baixi Can Industry has installed closed-loop water recycling systems that reduce consumption by 30%. This goes in line with global sustainability trends, like the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation.
This will improve sustainability in reducing waste. The company is able to reuse 98% of the metal offcuts produced by its precision cutting and scrap recovery process in manufacturing. Over 80% of all steel ever produced is still in use today, reinforcing the environmental credentials of metal packaging further, according to the World Steel Association.
Sustainability experts greet metal packaging as the most critical material in a circular economy. According to the words of environmental economist Dr. Roland Geyer, “Because of its infinite recyclability and long life, metal packaging bears the highest potential for circularity among all kinds of packaging material.” The confirmation of Baixi Can Industry’s leading position in sustainable production is further proved by the Company’s commitment to the EU Green Deal regulations of 85% metal recycling before 2030.
Efficiency in the supply chain contributes to sustainability. Baixi Can Industry applies just-in-time logistics that reduce storage needs by 10% and reduce carbon emissions linked to transportation. It is such efficiency that has met the growing demand for sustainable packaging worldwide with low production costs.
Baixi Can Industry constantly improves its production process, integrating energy-saving technology, recycling resources in a closed loop, and a high rate of recycling. This will assure sustainability. It places the company at the forefront in the sustainable metal packaging sector and supports both environmental and economic objectives.
